For
nearly sixty years, Theodor Seuss Geisel has delighted millions worldwide with
his fanciful and oftentimessurreal world in which moral and social tales
unfold with the ease and excitement of a perpetual child. His unbridled creativity and his ability to
touch the hearts of children, parents and grandparents alike goes unmatched
within the 20th century art world. Just
as the great illustrator Norman Rockwell utilized the cover of the
"Saturday Evening Post" to reach an audience beyond the scope of most
artists, so too did Dr. Seuss with his 44 books for children. With books such as Green Eggs and Ham, the third largest selling book in the English
language, Seuss found a showcase for his work which yielded a following larger
than any other artist in history.
